Description
Located alongside the Charles River, the huge Boston Museum of Science displays a variety of exhibitions which are cutting-edge but fun and invite young and old alike to engage with every scientific discipline, including computer technologies. With their hundreds of buttons, sound and light effects and interactive displays, most of the exhibits encourage visitor participation. The museum is also home to a planetarium, an observatory and an Imax cinema.
